25 Ski Days in 2026
Well, I got in 25 days of skiing in 2026. I had some fun of course, but I also had several extremely scary experiences. The good thing is, I made it through it all without getting injured. Let It Snow. Yeehaw! 😎🌞❄️☀️⛷🏂

Wow – Look at the impressions left on my leg by Stoko’s Dyneema® Support Cables. Not only can I feel the support provided by the Stoko…
It was another super nice day here at Park City, Utah on Friday March 13th. We had a great time skiing early, but later it got crowded and slushy again. So we played it safe and called it quits. We love Park City, Yeehaw! 😎🌞❄️☀️⛷🏂
On Wednesday March 12th Callie and I enjoyed a real nice day and had a great time skiing at Park City, Utah. It got kind or slushy and crowded as the day wore on, but we had our fill, Yeehaw! 😎🌞❄️☀️⛷🏂
Callie and I had a great time skiing at Deer Valley Resort again on Tuesday March 10th. It was a nice and sunny day, we started early and got several runs in. Shortly after noon it got slushy so we called it a day, Yeehaw! 😎🌞❄️☀️⛷🏂
When Callie and I were at Deer Valley Resort today Monday March 9th, the ‘Homeward Bound’ run was solid ice. It was a time consuming, death defying, regrettable choice. But we had fun anyway! 🥶😨😎🌞❄️☀️⛷🏂
Dashcam footage from 3/8/2026 showing the ride from SLC Airport to the Park Regency Resort in Park City – majorly sped up of course.

I just got this set of MIchelin CrossClimate2 Tires last December. This puncture was too close to the sidewall, so the tire had to be replaced. The crew at Discount Tire in Draper, Utah did a great job getting me back on the road, Yeehaw! 😎🌞❄️☀️
Bad visibility at the top due to intermittent snow and fog. Otherwise, I had a great day skiing at Snowbasin Resort on March 6th, Yeehaw! 😎🌞❄️☀️⛷🏂

I had fun on my first visit to Copper Mountain on February 28th until it got too busy. 🥶😨😎🌞❄️☀️⛷🏂
The lower parts of the mountain at Beaver Creek were icy on February 27th, so it wasn’t quite as much fun as it usually is… 🥶😨😎🌞❄️☀️⛷🏂
When I ski at Aspen Snowmass, I like to park at the ‘Two Creeks’ base area. Today I learned the hard way they decided not to groom any of the runs… 😎🌞❄️☀️⛷🏂
Wow, it’s another Bluebird beautiful day here at Aspen Buttermilk. I couldn’t resist, I had to come back here, this is one of my favorite places ever! Yeehaw! 😎🌞❄️☀️⛷🏂
Aspen Buttermilk – My Favorite ski resort! It’s Saturday morning and I have the place to myself. Yeehaw! 😎🌞❄️☀️⛷🏂
On my way home to rest for a while, I stayed in Crescent City.
On my way back from Revelstoke. The natural beauty in Canada is inspiring.
I guess I stressed my Intercostal Muscles skiing “The Last Spike” because I could barely get out of bed the next day.
On January 24th I skied Revelstoke’s “The Last Spike” from the top to almost the bottom. 🥶😨😎🌞❄️☀️⛷🏂
I drove all the way up to Revelstoke, Canada to ski the longest run in North America, “The Last Spike” at 9.5 miles. 🥶😨😎🌞❄️☀️⛷🏂

I had a great time skiing on January 16th at Wolf Creek in Colorado. It was only 10° F, but with 80% Humidity, it was ultra cold! 🥶😎🌞❄️☀️⛷🏂
Today, at Wolf Creek Dana gave me a one hour lesson I’ll never forget. I’m already an advanced skier, but I knew I could use some expert… 😎🌞❄️☀️⛷🏂
I drove to Pagosa Springs, Colorado and there was a beautiful sunset tonight. My plan is to ski Wolf Creek tomorrow, Yeehaw!
It was only 7 degrees F. Friday morning when I skied at Palisades Tahoe. I’m glad when it gets cold these days, Yeehaw! 😎🌞❄️☀️⛷🏂

My IKON pass came today! And it came with some cool artwork by Chris Benchetler. I plan on using my IKON pass all over the Western U.S. while driving on a massive road trip this winter – Yeehaw!
Here’s my 2025 ski stats as recorded by the ‘Slopes’ app and my Samsung Galaxy A54 5G phone. Last year I used the ‘Strava’ app to record my skiing, but ‘Strava’ seemed to have recorded ski lift rides as skiing mileage. So my last year’s stats are way off. Oh well…
I was super lucky and got a real nice room at the WorldMark Wolf Creek in Eden, Utah for a great deal. It was incredibly quiet there. Which is exactly what I needed after spraining my left knee Tuesday 3/25/2025 at Snowbasin Resort. Jeff, one of the maintenance guys offered to help and even brought me some crutches, which I sure needed at the time. What a bunch of great people!
I fell at Snowbasin Resort on Tuesday for no real reason except there was a transition from icy snow to corn or almost slushy snow, and that’s where I fell.
I got up and drove to Snowbasin early as usual and got an excellent parking spot and a nice table to get ready at. It’s Tuesday 3/25/2025, I’m riding Snowbasin’s DeMoisy Express ski lift and it’s an absolutely beautiful Bluebird day, Yeehaw!

It snowed like crazy yesterday, so I took the day off to rest. Today is Friday 3/21/2025 and it’s overcast with a little bit of muted sunlight getting through now and then, making visibility variable. I had fun anyway, Yeehaw!
It was a nice day for some air at Jackson Hole!
I had a great time skiing ‘Lupine Way’, ‘Amphitheater’, ‘Werner’, ‘Cros Ventre’, ‘Sundance’ ‘Teewinot’ and more at Jackson Hole!
I got treated to absolutely beautiful sunny and partly cloudy skies on 3/19/2025 at Jackson Hole Mountain Resort. And the snow was super soft – Yeehaw!
Here I am riding Big Sky’s new Madison 8 chair lift that’s equipped with heated seats and bubble domes. I heard yesterday if you show up early there is great parking at Big Sky’s Madison base area. So that’s where I parked today and it was great! Super close, easy access parking. I had a great time again today skiing at Big Sky. Mr. K Rocks, Yeehaw!
Watch closely on the right-hand side of the guard rail. At 00:27 you can see the moose about to jump over the guard rail and thankfully, it changes direction. If not, I may have been killed instantly.
It was a little overcast Monday 3/17/2025 at Big Sky Resort in Montana, but I had a great time. I love the pitch and how wide open Big Sky’s Mr. K ski run is, Yeehaw!
Heavy snow was forecast for California, Utah and Colorado, so I drove to Sun Valley, Idaho on 3/14/2025 for some Sun and Skiing, Yeehaw! I love getting ready to ski at Sun Valley’s River Run base lodge. You have to show up early to get a table, but it’s worth it!
This place is freaking crazy, a never ending stream of people… I got lucky and enjoyed a super nice day
This is why I love Buttermilk. Look how wide this run is, and look how the pitch is just perfect.
